'Amazing Race' First Listen: All-Stars Season 24 Gets Its Own Country Anthem

By Carrie Bell February 22, 2014 10:45 AM Yahoo TV

When competing against 10 of the strongest, smartest, and most memorable teams in an all-star season of "The Amazing Race," you should take advantage of any little detail and strategy that might give you an edge, cement partnerships, and land you on Phil's final mat first.

So taking a page out of Rocky Balboa's playbook, country crooners Jennifer Wayne and Caroline Cutbirth — who perform under the moniker Stealing Angels and who placed fourth in Season 22 of CBS's Emmy-winning competitive trek around the world — have written themselves some motivational music to carry them through their second attempt to win the $1 million prize and Yahoo TV has your exclusive first listen.

"Here We Are," which will likely be available for purchase on iTunes next week after "Race" premieres this Sunday, was written after the women were asked to return to the show for a shot at redemption. "Jen and I wrote this song because you don't always get a chance to do something twice, especially something as life changing as 'The Amazing Race,'" Cutbirth explained via a CBS publicist. "We wanted to express our excitement and determination to win through a song, because that's what we do. This song is all about never giving up, giving it all you have and kicking ass. We believe you should always try as hard as you can with as much heart as you have."

Wayne added that the single can just as easily work as an anthem for life. "We were inspired by our fire and fight! We were gonna go into it with everything we had. I think this song is a perfect message for life: Give it all you have!"

The lyrics certainly bring more than a few past "Race" challenges to mind with mentions of fire, rain, and even a hurricane. Plus, it might even include a few clues to their blonde ambition and strategy. "We are going for the big win. We're here ready to try again. We are stronger than we've ever been. Getting another shot, giving it all we got … I will find the answers as I go, taking every corner slow."

See if they are pitch perfect or if they fall flat when Season 24 begins Feb. 23.

"Here We Are" Lyrics

I can hear that distant drumSuddenly I start to runI'm running, running, running

I don't want to miss a chanceI don't want to miss a danceI'm coming, coming, coming

Are you in? Are you out? Are you coming with me now?

We are going for the big winWe're here ready to try againWe are stronger than we've ever beenGetting another shot, giving it all we gotHere we are, here we are, here we are, are, are

Bring on all the fire and rainHit me with the hurricaneI'm ready, ready, ready

I'll find the answers as I goTaking every corner slowI'm steady, steady, steady

Are you in? Are you out? Isn't that what life's about?

We are going for the big winWe're here ready to try againWe are stronger than we've ever beenGetting another shot, giving it all we gotHere we are, here we are, here we are, are, are

I don't want to look backAnd say I should have done thatHere we are

We are going for the big winWe're here ready to try againWe are stronger than we've ever beenGetting another shot, giving it all we got

We are going for the big winWe're here ready to try againWe are stronger than we've ever beenGetting another shot, giving it all we gotHere we are, here we are, here we are, are, areHere we are, are, are

Honestly, when I first learned that they are back for All Stars 2, I thought "ugh, why them?! Why not Pam & Winnie?"

Then after a while, I started appreciating the cast more and hoped that they become more than just the boy-crazed blondies from their season. And I don't know about you guys but their actions from the second episode did justice in thier inclusion to the cast. Now we could just hope that they don't ruin it

I thought their move to get the Express Pass was absolutely the one of the highlights of this episode.

If you know you're in trouble, why not work something out instead of fretting over it? They used absolutely the right words to tell Jet and Cord that they know they're one of the weakest team (using the fact that they started last on that leg) and that giving them the Express Pass would be a great decision because they will burn it at that very task and then Jet and Cord won't even worry about it at any point.

And don't even say they were stupid to burn them on such an "easy looking task". They got through a task with something they got for free. Isn't that AWESOME?

If some other teams don't like the fact that they got the Express Pass by devaluing their race worth and competitive level plus how they flirt... it all comes down to them being jealous that they were the ones who didn't get it. Simple as that.

As much as how happy I am to see Brenchel win Leg 7, I would have definitely loved Caroline & Jen to win the leg and beat the Cowboys recored of worst to First. They are a MUCH stronger team than what they are credited for. They just slayed the tasks in Rome, and even though some might argue Cancer just let them get Second, they gave Cancer the answer so they were gonna be 2nd anyway <3

Them being away from the Accidental Alliance definitely benefitted them

They're back to being epic racers who bottomgoddess <3

I don't get the hate for them, but there are a LOT of legs where their potential to be great racers have shown (Leg 4, 5, 7) and I hope they win at least one leg!

Well there still is the possibility of them winning the most important leg. I want to root for them, but they're the last team left that I found somewhat likable so I don't want to jynx them. Plus, they haven't done much this season to make me think they can make the final 3 especially when you consider no one in their right mind is going to help them next leg. I hate to say it, but I think their only chance is if the knee injury ends up knocking out Leo & Jamal.

I realyl like this girls, they are fun to watch, they are having fun, and have that "luck energy" that makes this race unpredictable.

I want them to pull a "Dark horse Victory" out of nowhere in the next leg... but that's it, I won't be mad if they win the entire race, but I don't really want them to win it either. Is nice to root for the underdog but they deserve a nice 3rd place finish.

Placing 4th on the first race and making the final 4 again on the second race? Isn't that what Dustin and Kandace had done in their first race as well?

I don't get why is it that when woman depended on others who WILLINGLY help them, they are considered as weak? And when woman like Mirna who's snappy and domineering, people dislike her for her fierce attitude to win and get what she wants?

It's hard being an woman right? Is that why Nat and Kat are mildly popular? Because they do their own thing but still excel in their race and are nice as well?

They are obviously doing something right here, which is to get out of all the drama and to prevent themselves from being U-TURNed just because they are a weak team and possibly getting them eliminated on SO MANY OCCURRENCES. Imagine if they were not in Leo and Jamal's good books, they would have been the ones going home if Leo and Jamal U-TURNed them.
